Jake U. - I was in the middle of several cable related issues in my guitar rig when I was turned on to Rattlesnake Cables. After a little thought I decided to take the plunge and just re-outfit with all Rattlesnake Cables. In my many years of playing guitar, it was the best decision I have made. I don't worry about cables being intermittent or not functioning properly because of how beefy they are, especially with the outer cover. I don't worry about the...

Bob K. - I cannot say enough positive about Hank and Rattlesnake. I am a 72 year old very active live and studio musician. I was in need of a quality cable. I ran across the Rattlesnake advert. As I said, I am an older player so I struggle with online/PayPal type purchase. I called Rattlesnake and Hank answered. He took my order on the phone. I ordered a 15 foot guitar cable and Pedal Labels. All quality products from a quality guy from a quality company.... October 22, 2021 Read Full Testimonial
Heron F. - Rattlesnake holds my pedalboard together! I started with a 6 pack of flex patches and when I expanded my setup I had to go back for some longer pro flex patches. I intend to replace my long cables soon and I’ll be getting them from Hank Donovan & co. as well! October 21, 2021 Read Full Testimonial
Giuseppe C. - It is difficult these days to feel good about anything you purchase. Many companies give you the impression they really care about their product; only to disappoint you in the process. Rattlesnake is a unique company in that they have made the simple purchase of a guitar cable; a great experience. Hat’s off to Hank and his crew for their incredible attention to detail. Incredible customer service, and more importantly, a product that reflects... October 19, 2021 Read Full Testimonial
James T. - I bought a couple of Rattlesnake Instrument Cables in Ash weave after losing my longtime favorite cables from another premium manufacturer. Braided cables can be hit or miss for me. Sometimes they bunch up in weird ways and won’t lay flat. Or they’re too stiff for instrument use. But the Rattlesnake weave is perfect. It has an unusually coarse texture. But it lays flat, coils easily (and properly), and is flexible enough. The plug connections... October 18, 2021 Read Full Testimonial
Paul L. - I had back to back gigs coming up and it is one solid cable, stiff enough to be tangle free, flexible to roam a stage for almost eight hours. When I need another cable I'll be back with Rattlesnake. thanks, Paul October 16, 2021 Read Full Testimonial
Sean F. - About seven years ago I got my first Rattlesnake instrument cable and I’ve never looked back since then. They are the only cables I’ll ever need! I exclusively use the instrument, patch, speaker, and XLR cables for all of my LIVE sound and performance rigs. I have also sold these quality products at my shop, Guitarley’s Customer Guitar & Repair, to all of my customers! These truly are the best cables and Hank and his team offer the best...

John S. - The order experience was great. My order showed up quickly. When I opened the box I saw the instrument cables were a nice reusable cloth bag. I got the rattlesnake weave and they look awesome. I tried using the cables out and they feel like a really high quality cable They're nice a flexible but it looks like the ends will last. Plugged it in and there's no obvious hums of any kind. I live in a pretty old house with old electrical, and every weak... October 15, 2021 Read Full Testimonial

I was in the middle of several cable related issues in my guitar rig when I was turned on to Rattlesnake Cables. After a little thought I decided to take the plunge and just re-outfit with all Rattlesnake Cables. In my many years of playing guitar, it was the best decision I have made. I don't worry about cables being intermittent or not functioning properly because of how beefy they are, especially with the outer cover. I don't worry about the ends coming loose or dodgy because of the care taken in the way the ends are attached and wrapped. Speaking of the outer cover, I never have to worry about who's cables are mine because they all match and they stand out in a good way. Aside form how excellent the cables are themselves, the speed of getting my orders built and sent out are unmatched. The packaging shows how much care is taken to have a product that stands above others. If you aren't sure and are reading this, do yourself a favor and get some. You won't regret it!
I cannot say enough positive about Hank and Rattlesnake. I am a 72 year old very active live and studio musician. I was in need of a quality cable. I ran across the Rattlesnake advert. As I said, I am an older player so I struggle with online/PayPal type purchase. I called Rattlesnake and Hank answered. He took my order on the phone. I ordered a 15 foot guitar cable and Pedal Labels. All quality products from a quality guy from a quality company. I will order more products in the future.
Thoughts about our Service:
Customer service is as good as it gets. Communication is top notch. EVERY company should use Hank and Rattlesnake as a model on how to take care of customers. CHEERS, PEACE

Thoughts about our Service:
Rattlesnake is always extremely quick and communicative on a personal level. As someone who orders online frequently I’m impressed with the responsiveness and fast production time, especially considering the quality of the product.
It is difficult these days to feel good about anything you purchase. Many companies give you the impression they really care about their product; only to disappoint you in the process. Rattlesnake is a unique company in that they have made the simple purchase of a guitar cable; a great experience. Hat’s off to Hank and his crew for their incredible attention to detail. Incredible customer service, and more importantly, a product that reflects their best practices. Worth the money.
I bought a couple of Rattlesnake Instrument Cables in Ash weave after losing my longtime favorite cables from another premium manufacturer.
Braided cables can be hit or miss for me. Sometimes they bunch up in weird ways and won’t lay flat. Or they’re too stiff for instrument use. But the Rattlesnake weave is perfect. It has an unusually coarse texture. But it lays flat, coils easily (and properly), and is flexible enough.
The plug connections are reinforced with stiff rubber. And I like that the outer jackets won’t inadvertently spin open. The rubber obstructs access to the solder joints. But with such heavy duty construction, can’t foresee the connections being severed in any scenario.
The Ash color is like a sandy gray. It looks gray straight on. But has a hint of brown when seen at an angle. It’s more interesting and distinguishable than plain black. But subdued enough to not be visually distracting on stage.
There are two basic philosophies on instrument cable audio quality. Some cables go for sonic transparency. Others deliberately load the signal down to roll off some highs with a resonant peak at an assumed sweet spot. The Rattlesnakes are on the transparent end of the spectrum. The guitar comes through sounding clear like itself.
I appreciate that Rattlesnake company lists the capacitance and shielding specs instead of printing up fancy packaging with meaningless marketing catch phrases. The capacitance, shielding, and build quality are all that really matter in cables. Everything else is B.S.
Overall, these are my new favorites. I’ll go to Rattlesnake for my future cable needs
I had back to back gigs coming up and it is one solid cable, stiff enough to be tangle free, flexible to roam a stage for almost eight hours. When I need another cable I'll be back with Rattlesnake. thanks, Paul
Thoughts about our Service:
Customer service was exceptional, to get a video thank you just an hour or so after placing my order was impressive. I may be incorporating that into my own business. Ordered Saturday morning, had the cable in hand two days later.

I’m a lifer for sure.
Thoughts about our Service:
Hank has always taken excellent care of me and goes above and beyond my expectations as a happy customer.
The order experience was great. My order showed up quickly. When I opened the box I saw the instrument cables were a nice reusable cloth bag. I got the rattlesnake weave and they look awesome. I tried using the cables out and they feel like a really high quality cable They're nice a flexible but it looks like the ends will last. Plugged it in and there's no obvious hums of any kind. I live in a pretty old house with old electrical, and every weak link in the chain magnifies an issue pretty easily. Even my Mogami cable has more hum than this. The guitars and amps I tried all sounded great. No complaints based on this first impression. Would definitely buy more.
Thoughts about our Service:
Great! Prompt emails from the company informing me about the status. A personal message from Hank was a nice touch.
Rattlesnake Cable is the best I have seen. Their product quality and customer service are unmatched. Package presentation and personal touches are top notch.

My experience was great. These guys really go the extra mile!
